Do You Believe in Beauty?
“Vilain nez ne gâche pas beau visage”
Do you believe in beauty?
Believe?
Don’t you think it’s a religion?
I stand corrected. It can favour a form of faith.
Beauty for beauty’s sake or objective!
But there’s always something less than adequate.
Oh! I can't wait.
A swallow-the-world mouth
Any-which-way-they-can teeth
Adopted mops of hair
Down-on-their-luck designer breasts
A too-short-or-too-long prick
Toys-for-us nails
Snuff-the-fire feet
And anything else to dampen any blinded desire.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Chubby chance!
The beholder only perceives the beauty.
Same thing!
Perhaps!
Vilain nez ne gâche pas beau visage (Ugly nose does not spoil beautiful face).
